Download or read book An Ordinary Mystic written by Mark Derewicz and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-29 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Ray was six years old, his mother lay dying in a makeshift hospital on an Alaskan Island, praying with all her heart for God to watch over her sons when she's gone. A bit of a scoundrel as a kid, Ray experienced a religious awakening in 1957 when he was 18 and immediately began teaching a new way to view the Bible. To Ray, Jesus was not necessarily the only way to "know" God. This got him into trouble with church elders. Excommunicated in his 20s and raising a family from paycheck to paycheck, he ran into a strange woman who liked Ray's inclusive understanding of Christ's teachings and invited Ray to meet some like-minded friends who were part of a religion Ray had never heard of. He refused to meet them. The woman accused Ray of being a hypocrite. Ray gritted his teeth, acquiesced, and met these believers of this "odd" religion with a name he could not pronounce. This meeting, when Ray was 26, changed the fate of his life and the lives of hundreds, if not thousands of people across the United States . . . for the better. Ray was, in one sense, ordinary - a football-loving family man with a penchant for coffee and peanut butter who wound up co-owning a tiny architectural firm dedicated to building shoe stores. In another sense, Ray was mystical - seemingly without stress even though he had reason to be incredibly stressed out. He was absurdly patient and generous, a lover of truth, and a wayfarer who felt guiding by God even when he went blind. His spiritual understanding of life and how to live it led him to believe his calling was to help his fellow human beings view reality in a world-embracing way that transcended the modern boundaries of religions, countries, and peoples. Along the way, Ray uncovered a divinely inspired plan spiritually detailing how humans were destined to live - in unity and in peace. This book is a memoir dedicated to Ray Estes, now nearing 80 years of age, and his positive influence on the many friends he made along the way...

Download or read book Autobiography of a Spiritually Incorrect Mystic written by Osho and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2001-06-09 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand the life and teachings of Osho, one of the twentieth century’s most unusual gurus and philosophers, in Autobiography of a Spiritually Incorrect Mystic. In 1990, Osho prepared for his departure from the body that had served him for fifty-nine years—in the words of his attending physician—“as calmly as though he were packing for a weekend in the country.” Who was this man, known as the Sex Guru, the “self-appointed bhagwan” (Rajneesh), the Rolls-Royce Guru, the Rich Man’s Guru, and simply the Master? Drawn from nearly five thousand hours of Osho’s recorded talks, this is the story of his youth and education, his life as a professor of philosophy and years of travel teaching the importance of meditation, and the true legacy he sought to leave behind: a religion-less religion centered on individual awareness and responsibility and the teaching of “Zorba the Buddha,” a celebration of the whole human being. Osho challenges readers to examine and break free of the conditioned belief systems and prejudices that limit their capacity to enjoy life in all its richness. He has been described by the Sunday Times of London as one of the “1000 Makers of the 20th Century” and by Sunday Mid-Day (India) as one of the ten people—along with Gandhi, Nehru, and Buddha—who have changed the destiny of India. Since his death in 1990, the influence of his teachings continues to expand, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world.
